Tithe Farm Sports & Social Club is a members' club in South Harrow with three regulation dartboards in the bar, free to play, home to a Middlesex County darts team. The bar has been open to all since 2019. Intro overview for a London darts venue page, written in a warm second-person voice.

The darts setup

Three regulation dartboards sit in the members' bar, each with a proper oche marked out and decent lighting overhead, so you are not squinting at the treble twenty. No automatic scoring or booking system here, this is chalk-and-talk territory. Turn up when the bar is open, grab a board if one is free and play as long as you like. You can borrow a set of darts from behind the bar if you have come empty handed, or bring your own. Nothing to pay for the boards. It is a proper club fit-out rather than a few boards bolted to a wall, which is why a county side trains here.

The darts scene here

This is a real league club, not a novelty bar. Tithe Farm is home to a Middlesex County darts team, and it runs both Ladies and Gents darts within the club's wider sporting setup. County matches are played on site and visitors are welcome to watch on the door. That means the standard on the boards can be high, but the welcome is the friendly social-club sort, and the club actively takes on new members year-round. If you are after regular fixtures and people who actually keep score, rather than a one-off stag-do throw, this is your kind of room.

Good to know

The club has been going since 1933 and refitted the bar in 2019, and since then the bar is open to all, not just members. Alongside the darts there are two English pool tables (£1 a game), snooker, and Sky and BT Sports on the screens. A café does breakfast and lunch with a kids' menu, and there is a patio overlooking the football pitches. Real ale fans are catered for too; it appears in the West Middlesex CAMRA guide. Bar hours are Monday to Friday from 5pm and from noon at weekends, all closing at 11pm.
